What the fuck are you doing here?!!!!!!
[%][****] The acting is done really, really well on this. The accent is sort of like a pseudo-Brooklyn accent..and it gives me slight pause...but they actually have Brooklyn accents in New Vegas. The acting sounds real. I like how you've shown the fright and intensity in his lines in a realistic way. Lot of actors tend to go too high or too low on the scale but you've nailed it where it sounds believable. I think this voice would work for another character as well. Really well acted. Great sound. There's a smidgen of buzzing in the background but easily fixable and I'm glad you didn't use Audacity noise reduction on it. Audacity noise reduction usually hurts more than it helps. I like this. I'll mark this.
Thank you! I appreciate that feedback a lot. I figured I'd give it a little NY for the sake of making choices, but I understand if its a wee bit out of place. If there is another character you might suggest, I'd love to give it a go. Cheers!
